Here are instructions from this forum: [Strip ID3 tags, leave Vorbis tags on FLAC?](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/2419/9)

Use Ctrl-R (which removes _all_ tagging from the files), then Ctrl-Z (Undo) to paste the tags back into the files from the clipboard. The ID3 tag won't be recreated when you perform the Undo. Again, I'd be careful doing this and would be sure to make a backup of the files beforehand, as well as making sure you test it on a few files first.
